Mt. Zion Presbyterian Church is a historic Presbyterian church located near Bishopville Lee County, South Carolina. It was built in 1911, and is a linear gable-front, temple-form, two-story brick building in the Neoclassical style. Set upon a raised brick foundation, the building's most imposing feature is its tetrastyle portico featuring a full-width masonry stair with cheek walls and monumental limestone columns and pilasters of the Ionic order. Directly to the rear of the church building is a small, one-story lateral-gabled frame building, constructed in 1851 as Mt. Zion's Session House.[2][3]
